Cool Wiring DVC subs

I am going to be adding 2 DVC subs..(more than likely the Comp VR's and I probably with 4 ohm voice coils) Anyway, I have never had more than 1 sub in my system before so this is somewhat new to me. I would prefer to keep the total ohm load at 4 to keep the amp running somewhat cool. (as for amp...I am debating on those too) Anyway, what are my options for wiring these?


Thanks
Steve

You would have to wire the two coils on each sub in series and then wire the two subs together in parallel.

This should produce a 4 ohm mono load

I hope this diagram helps
